What Is The Water School Doing?

The Water School implements it's program through existing agencies in the beneficiary area. Local community groups – schools, churches, hospitals, government institutions – who have a vision for clean water, are championing the process and working in their communities to bring education and training in concert with the materials needed to clean existing water sources.

A normal program includes:

• training on health and sanitation
• how to use solar disinfection
• follow-up and accountability
• additional training as necessary

Once the parents see the impact of clean water on their lives and the lives of their children, preparing and drinking solar disinfected water becomes a habit for health. Users become advocates of the program, training their peers and spreading the message of safe water.
